Hello,

Question:

Keisha solved the following equation:

4x − 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4)

Which step has an incorrect justification? (Make sure to type only the number of the step into the blank: 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5)

Correct Solution:

x − 2x + 8 = 6(x + 4)

4x + −2x + 8 = (6) (x) + (6) (4) (Distribute)

4x + −2x + 8 = 6x + 24

(4x + −2x) + (8) = 6x + 24 (Combine Like Terms)

2x + 8 = 6x + 24

2x + 8 = 6x + 24

Subtract 6x from both sides.

2x + 8 − 6x = 6x + 24 − 6x

−4x + 8 = 24

Subtract 8 from both sides.

−4x + 8 − 8 = 24 − 8

−4x = 16

-4 x -4 = 16

x = -4

Answer:

Where keisha went wrong was forgeting to subtract 6x to both sides.

Incorrrect step is #3

The solution to the equation is correct.

on the line - 4x + 8 = 24 to the next line

- 4x = 16

4 should be Subtraction property of equality and not addition property of equality

A file that is 283 megabytes is being downloaded. If the download is 14.2 % complete, how many megabytes have been downloaded? R
nordsb [41]

Answer:

40.186 Mb

Step-by-step explanation:

14.2% of 283 megabytes have been downloaded.

To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number. Change the percent to a decimal by dividing the percent by 100 which means move the decimal point of the percent two places to the left.

14.2% of 283 Mb =

= 14.2% * 283 Mb

= 0.142 * 283 Mb

= 40.186 Mb

Answer: 40.186 Mb

Your client has saved $1,860 for a down payment on a house. A government loan program requires a down payment equal to 3% of the
Delicious77 [7]

If there is a $5,000 deposit, that means the amount to be mortgaged is $82,500. Calculating 3% of that amount:

0.03 * $82500 = $2475

The closing costs of the loan are $2,475. When they close the deal, they must bring that PLUS the down payment to the table, or $7,475.

(B)

If they are putting 30% down:

0.30 * $310000 = $93000

Add that to all of the other costs listed, they'll need to bring $94,165.

(C)

Discarding the $25,000, the Paltrows are asking for a $100,000 mortgage loan. 2% of that is $2,000, and so the total mortgage is for $102,000.

(D)

I can't answer this because I don't know how the interest is charged

Multiple representations: bargain DVD's cost $5 each at mega movie graph the proportional relationship that gives the cost y in
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

With this being a proportional relationship, the y-intercept MUST be 0.

Thus, the relationship has the form  y = C(x) = ($5/movie)x, where x is the number of movies purchased.

To graph this, first plot a dark dot at (0, 0).  Then, starting at (0, 0), move your pencil point 1 unit to the right and from this new position 5 units up.  Plot a dark dot at (1, 5).  Now draw a straight line through (0, 0) to the right through (1, 5).
